@janetteb @craig … and he’s spammed garbage and links all over the site. On the Sofa, for starters, but a whole lot of others too. Craig, please can you nuke him from orbit, terminate him with extreme prejudice, yadda yadda. I don’t know if you have an easy way to track every post he’s made, if not I’ll volunteer to trawl the site and list every forum he’s dumped in for your convenience, just say the word.
24 June 2021 at 06:36 #71790@craig Also, Quatermass and the Pit Part 1 – the last post is a big spam. Hope us users aren’t nagging you too much 🙂
24 June 2021 at 19:53 #71791@craig, @phaseshift, @jimthefish Am contacting you all in your respective capacities as Emperor and Time Lords of the site about the current spammer who is flooding the site.
As the spammer’s posts are still on the site, it occurred to me that @craig might not be around at the moment. Hence this call to the collective powers of our resident Time Lords.
25 June 2021 at 02:15 #71793I tried to contact Craig couple weeks ago via email about passwords etc aaand no reply.
point is, I hope he’s OK.
So, Forum be rocking! 😉

25 June 2021 at 03:49 #71795Hi Puro, yes I too was wondering about Craig.
I have to ask…surely Thane can’t still be 16…
25 June 2021 at 04:12 #71796Indeed in the timey world he be 16…
In the chronological, non inverted anti-entropy world, he’s 19
25 June 2021 at 04:17 #71797The inverted concept comes from a film on Netflix, a Christopher Nolan movie, Tenet, which was pretty awful.
I love timey whimey worlds, cleverness and complexity as much as the next person, but if the characters seem cold and …dead, I can’t relate.😁
25 June 2021 at 05:12 #71799@thane16 Hi. Lovely to hear from you again. I have been worried about you too. Hope all is well with you.
I am also concerned about Craig. Hopefully he is just caught up with R.L
Cheers
Janette
27 July 2021 at 07:30 #71901@craig Minor website matter – in Dr Who News on 24th June, ‘osdffdsfg’ or somesuch posted a mountain of rubbish with several commercial links in it. May I suggest respectfully nuking it from orbit? And maybe banning Mr alphabet soup.
27 October 2021 at 21:19 #72243Hi all,
I’m very sorry I have been AFK (away from keyboard) for a while. You know, life stuff…
But I just wanted to let you know that I will be back on Sunday for the start of the new season. I have a busy weekend but I hope to be back at keyboard around 5:00pm. Which should give me plenty of time to get a thread opened.
Later. I will also delete all the spam that’s been posted while I was gone and also create a new pub. And anything else I spot that needs doing.
Thanks for your patience and thanks for sticking with the site.
Love to you all.
27 October 2021 at 23:04 #72244@craig, Welcome back! Was starting to think you had been abducted and imprisoned by the Judoon. (Maybe you had, but managed to escape!)
31 October 2021 at 03:29 #722456 November 2021 at 19:04 #72302@craig There is a new post on the BBC spoilers page which I think should be moved to the actual Spoilers page.
13 November 2021 at 01:28 #72367Cleanup in Aisle 9 … er, Faces of the Doctor (2):
“t”
and
buying “something or other” online
3 January 2022 at 01:22 #72749@craig I think we may have a bigoted troll posting calling him/herself anonymous posted on 3/1/22 at 01:10 on the Eve of the daleks thread the comment is both racist and homophobic in nature and under the sites rules needs to be removed and the poster possibly banned
3 January 2022 at 05:46 #72750Just supporting what @devilishrobby said.
4 January 2022 at 06:06 #72762@devilishrobby though I’ve noticed they seem to have changed their comment to the more innocuous but deeply ironic given the nature of their original complaint ‘role on Russel’. A switch so provocative it definitely seems to confirm troll.
7 February 2022 at 19:47 #72880@craig are we allowed to “sell” stuff on this site if not need to report entry on who news 4
7 February 2022 at 19:58 #72881@devilishrobby I’m kinda thinking I’ll let it go, just cos the way it was phrased. I mean, it might be something people might be interested in.
If people start commercial advertising on the site then that will be a different matter as I have always promised there will be no advertising on this site.
But thank you for for letting me know. I’ve been a bit too busy to keep an eye on the site recently.
11 April 2022 at 02:42 #72990A present Doctor should run into Adric.
Matthew Waterhouse.
Tegan and Nyssa.
Borrowed the TARDIS.
Saved Adric.
Dropped him off on Earth.
14 April 2022 at 01:52 #73004Is there a bathroom in the TARDIS?
If not maybe introduce it.
User stuck in it for a whole episode?
14 April 2022 at 21:47 #73007There could be a bathroom in the TARDIS.
Albery.
15 April 2022 at 15:46 #73009Almost certainly a bathroom. The Tardis creates rooms as necessary, after all.
If you want an explicit text reference, there’s ‘Clara and the Tardis’, a bonus ‘minisode’ on the Season 8(?) DVD box set:
Clara: I know what just happened. I went to the bathroom…thank you for the hologram leopard, by the way, an unexpected pleasure…and my bedroom was completely missing!
15 April 2022 at 21:28 #73010I believe the TARDIS is just like Snoopy’s doghouse, it has an indoor pool, right?
16 April 2022 at 01:03 #73011Yes there is a bathroom.
If you watch The Pilot, Bill needs the toilet and Nadole suggests that she waits a bit.

23 April 2022 at 02:04 #73049The Doctor and his companion(s)
are at the comsole-
The song-
“Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree
With Anyone Else But Me” starts
Playing. The Apples in the TARDIS Orchard are
Ready.
TIME to abduct Martha Stewart.
Get her to make some Apple Pies?

Can I just remind you and everyone else that this topic is just for comments about the website, if you spot any problems. And to alert me to spammers etc. It is not for Doctor Who chat.
If you have random Doctor Who chat please post On The Sofa.
Thanks.
24 April 2022 at 20:55 #73054Thank you for the reminder, @craig. I received a couple of spammy messages, but those were easily deleted and have not recurred. Whether that is due to action on your part or inattentiveness from the spammer, I don’t know, but either way it’s resolved.
I also want to echo the sentiments @blenkinsopthebrave posted in the latest episode thread. Craig, I am grateful to you for keeping this site up and running, even with diminished interest. I feel hopeful about the future of Doctor Who, and I love being able to come here and engage in witty, heartfelt, intelligent, insightful discourse about all things Whovian, and also the general state of the world. This site has been a safe haven in what seems to be an increasingly insane and chaotic world. Thank you, Craig!
24 April 2022 at 20:56 #73055The Doctor and his companion(s) often leave the door open.
Get Sadie Miller in the TARDIS.
Trapped exploring it’s Wonders.
(Elizabeth Sladen’s daughter)
Drop her off in Dallas, Texas.
Not realizing she’s in the Past-
She asks directions to where President Kennedy was assassinated.
No assassination….
The puppet masters have to
expose themselves to complete the assassination.
25 April 2022 at 07:25 #73057@craig @nerys same sentiments here hopefully once RTD has retaken the reins and we see the results interest and participation will pick up again. BTW I think I’ve had the same spammer leaving me messages.and @bean-powered please post in the right room we’re not that scary are we
25 April 2022 at 13:40 #73058@devilishrobby and @nerys and @craig
Same sentiments here too. I have not been inspired by the more recent episodes but my love of Dr Who has not diminished, (Watching The Rebel Flesh right now) and am hoping for better days ahead with the return of RTD and a huge thank you to Craig for maintaining this site.
My S.O read the message from the spammer the other night and there was much laughter so at least they provide amusement occasionally.
Cheers
Janette
27 April 2022 at 15:53 #73066I have doubts that even RTD can save the show not that I’ve watched it since 2017 although I finished a run of fifty episodes recently from the Classic Pertwee series 7 & 8! RTD did some great endings to series I’ll admit but his early episodes weren’t too good and for some unknown reason had to add a comment or scene about gay people!!! Yet I liked his David Tennant final stories with the Time Lords sitting in the ruins of the Capitol and plotting harsh reprisals against not only the Daleks but also against the Earth as well just in order for them to survive as spirit forms! Let’s hope he can equal this style and at least vanquish the last five years by saying it was a crossover with another reality that he had become immersed in…

27 April 2022 at 16:17 #73067Once again, can I just remind you and everyone else that this topic is just for comments about the website, if you spot any problems. And to alert me to spammers etc. It is not for Doctor Who chat.
If you have Doctor Who chat please post elsewhere e.g. On The Sofa.
Thanks.
27 April 2022 at 16:47 #73068Ooops! Sorry…
